The MPAS (formerly the Astronomical Society of Frankston) was foundedin 1969 with the aim of fostering the study of Astronomy by amateurs and promoting the hobby of amateur Astronomy to the general public. The Society holds a General Meeting each month for the exchange of ideas and information.  Regular observing nights, both private and public, are arranged to observe currently available celestial objects.  For decades the Society has provided Astronomy on the Move educational presentations and observing nights for schools and community groups exclusively in the Peninsula and surrounding regions to Moorabbin, Dandenong & Tooradin.
